"As a part of our ongoing commitment to uplifting our
communities, we are excited to hold our second annual Day of
Service event in support of two causes our employees are passionate
about and that fill real needs across our footprint," said
Andy Harmening, president and CEO,
Associated Bank. "In 2023, we made an incredible impact in just one
day with 2,114 employees donating over 6,300 volunteer hours to 210
hunger-focused nonprofits across 112 local communities, and this
year we are aiming even higher."
From May 13 to June 3, all
Associated Bank locations will host a Stock the Box food drive. The
drive will collect nonperishable food items that will be donated to
local nonprofit organizations. Customers and community members are
invited to drop off nonperishable, non-glass food items in Stock
the Box collection bins located at each branch through June
3.
Most of the Day of Service activities will happen on
June 5, and there will be additional
volunteer opportunities throughout June. Activities will include
food packaging and distribution, youth mentoring or engagement and
other services to support those in need.
Building on Associated's longstanding nonprofit partnerships,
employees will have the opportunity to make a significant
contribution to these two important causes in their local
communities as a part of the annual Day of Service.
With a passion to give back, each year in addition to the Day of
Service, Associated employees provide thousands of volunteer hours
through the bank's Roots in our Community program. Since the
program launched in 2012, Associated employees have reported
volunteer hours equating to more than $18.5
million in community service value.
